Weeds to Know
These are our top public enemies in the gardens!!
Purslane (verdalarga—eat it if it’s in a garden bed—it’s good for you)
Maple Tree Seedling
Elm Tree Seedling
Wood Sorrel (Kids like to eat this. It tastes like lemon.)
Dandelion (Also a very healthy weed—only eat if it’s in a garden bed. Our city soil has too much lead.)
Burdock—has a big, long root—like dandelions
Thistle—be careful of spines—use gloves
Pigweed or lamb’s quarters—also a very healthy weed—eat only if in a bed
